EVENTS
TODAY: #HonVoyage Gallery Show Reception
Friday, October 16th | 3:00-5:00
Honors Lounge Art Gallery
Swing by the Honors Lounge this Friday for the closing reception of #HonVoyage. There will be light bites, a scavenger hunt with the photos, and great conversation so mark your calendars - we hope to see you on Friday!
#HonVoyage is a collection of experiences captured by the Honors community as we meandered through the long warm days of summer. The exhibition is designed to be similar to the way you experience Instagram, a long feed of small images that beg you to stop at the moments that draw your attention. Reaching around the entire lounge, the show is not meant to have a beginning or end, allowing you to continue to re-experience the work from various viewpoints every time you visit the lounge.
Scavenger Hunt @ Tyler School of Art
Tyler School of Art Lobby
Still haven’t fulfilled your Art GenEd requirement? Want to take a class in one of the country’s best art schools? Considering a major or minor at Tyler? If so, join the Honors Creatives for the Tyler Scavenger Hunt this Wednesday! This event is open to all honors students; we'll be examining easels, perusing paintings, searching sculptures, and adventuring through art to find clues leading to the prize! Not only will you be able to explore one of the most interesting buildings on campus, you’ll also have the opportunity to learn more about Tyler and what it offers! If that's not enough to excite you, the winners will receive some free swag!
We’ll be meeting in the lobby of Tyler at 5pm on Wednesday, October 21 to form teams and discuss the rules of the hunt. Best of luck and may the most creative win!
